锈菌

一、引言 銹菌是寄生在有生命的绿色植物上的专性寄生菌,通常寄生在被子植物、松柏类植物和蕨类植物上。这一群真菌包括约有7,000种,从经济价值上讲,它们是极其重要的。其中许多种酿成禾谷类及其他农作物的著名病害——銹病,造成严重的损失。锈菌的分布遍全球。王云章教授在“中国锈菌索引”内列入国产銹菌约800种,分别寄生在1,500种左右的高等植物上。二、锈菌的形态及生活史 銹菌的菌体甚小,寄生在寄主茎、叶等处的细胞间隙内,发生有隔膜的菌丝体,以吸器穿入寄主细胞内,摄取养料。它们的孢子多产生在寄主表皮下或暴露在寄主体表。它们所形成的孢子堆色似鉄銹,故名之为銹菌。研究銹菌的生活史是非常重要的,因为了解锈菌传染的方式、越夏和越冬的方法以及它们的寄主范围,就能找出銹菌生活史中最弱的一环,提供防治上的一个宝贵的资料。在一完全銹菌的生活史中,具备五种不同型的孢子阶段。我们根据它们各个不同阶段的生物关系和习性,给这些不同的孢子阶段以不同的名称。现以麦類     

重寄生属植物及其在我国的分布、现状与保护对策

重寄生属(Phacellaria)植物共有8个种,其地理分布主要局限于东南亚和我国华南和西南地区的亚热带和热带山地森林中,其中我国分布有6个种。重寄生属植物的寄主仅局限于桑寄生科(Loranthaceae)和檀香科(Santalaceae)寄生藤属(Dendrotrophe)的植物。作者在查阅国内主要标本馆的馆藏标本、野外调查并结合已有研究报道的基础上,详细分析了我国重寄生属植物目前的生存现状,认为它们已经处于渐危或濒危的境地。造成重寄生属植物渐危或濒危的主要因素是森林过度砍伐导致的重寄生植物寄主种群密度的降低;与重寄生植物种子传播者啄花鸟类的生境片断化和数量的减少等也有密切的关系。重寄生属植物与其寄主、种子传播者啄花鸟类和生境中的其他生物形成了复杂的关系,是生物多样性的重要组成部分。因此,有必要对重寄生属植物进行保护。提出了保护重寄生属植物的生境、保护啄花鸟类和加强其生物学特性研究等保护对策。

本文报道了小麦纹枯病菌侵染小麦的过程,病菌在穿透寄主之前产生侵染热 丝圈以及形态简单的单附着胞等侵染结构,由染垫基部丝或附产丰胞产生的侵染菌丝直接或通过气孔侵入寄主,也可见菌丝直接侵入寄主;菌丝侵入寄主表皮后,迅速在受侵细胞内呈网状产扩展,并直接穿透毗邻细胞壁,向其它细胞纵横扩展,受病组织出现细胞变形,变空;接近菌丝的质膜发生质壁分离,质膜断裂,叶绿体有,变小或接近消失,类本被破坏,叶绿体内嗜颗粒     

悬钩子皮下盘菌种内遗传多样性的RAPD分子标记

对悬钩子皮下盘菌(Hypoderma rubi)15个菌株进行RAPD分析,从RAPD-PCR扩增结果得知此菌种内遗传多样性丰富。利用DPS软件,根据类平均法(UPGMA)对各菌株构建遗传距离聚类图。结果是15个菌株在遗传距离4．84水平上被分为3大类:第一类包括8个菌株,寄主相同的菌株和采集地相同的菌株分别优先聚在一起;第二类包含3个菌株,它们均采自同一地点,亲缘关系相近的菌株被优先聚类;第三类包括4个菌株,也是寄主相同的菌株优先聚在一起。该结果表明,寄主和采集地对悬钩子皮下盘菌种内亲缘关系均产生影响,且寄主的影响较大。另外,菌株间差异与寄生部位无明显相关性。

某些糖蛋白的结构与功能的关系

蛋白质在细胞的生命里起着重大的作用。它们参与细胞结构;它们是细胞内进行的各种化学反应的催化工具;它们通过各种机制来控制酶促反应的速度。蛋白质的肽键水解时,释放出氨基酸,这些氨基酸既可进行氧化也可进行糖、脂肪酸,卟啉及其他细胞成分的合成。它们是生物毒素的物质基础,它们也以抗体的形式来保卫脊椎动物抵抗外来侵袭,其他天然物质没有一个能象蛋白质这样完成如此大量而广泛的功能的。     

植物体内Ca2+,pH,ROS活体荧光探针成像研究进展

细胞内信号分子Ca2+与活性氧(ROS)以及细胞pH,是参与细胞多种生理和发育过程调节的关键因子。这些信号分子或细胞化学势之所以在如此众多方面起作用,是因为它们在生物体内从细胞到器官水平上、从数秒到数小时一直是在时空动态变化着的。恰到好处的是,荧光素感受器可以稳定地对细胞内Ca2+,pH与活性氧(ROS)活体原位实时定量。可视化的荧光细胞探针可分为两类:(a)直接染色;(b)基于绿色荧光蛋由基因编码的感受器。绿色荧光蛋白探针可在亚细胞水平上对目标蛋白准确定位,为得到细胞信号高分辨图提供可能。     

葡萄座腔菌科研究进展——鉴定,系统发育学和分子生态学

葡萄座腔菌科（Botryosphaeriaceae）真菌是农业和林业上重要的病原菌、内生真菌或潜在的致病菌,主要引起树木溃疡病。这类真菌种类繁多,寄主范围广,广泛分布于全球,在生态系统中占有重要的地位。本文综述了近年来国内外在葡萄座腔菌科的分子生态学研究方面取得的新进展。简要介绍了葡萄座腔菌科真菌物种鉴定及其研究方法方面的发展,并列出了2006年以来发现的6个新属和38个新种;概述了该科各个种、属之间的系统发育关系以及科内区分的18个群。在真菌种群遗传结构及其与寄主关系方面,已有研究表明葡萄座腔菌科真菌大体可分为寄主专化型和广谱寄生型两种类型,并已经揭示了无性型为Diplodia,Lasiodiplodia和Dothiorella等部分种群的遗传结构及它们与寄主之间的联系。在种内遗传多样性和基因流动研究方面,展示了利用ISSR、SSR等分子标记方法取得的一些重要结果,有些种群（如Lasiodiplodia theobromae）没有寄主专化性,它们在不同寄主间表现出很强的基因流动,但在不同区域内的基因交流却很有限。文章最后讨论了该科分子生态学研究有待进一步解决的问题。     

Crystal structure, detonation performance, and thermal stability of a new polynitro cage compound: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15-nonanitro-2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15-nonaazaheptacyclo [5.5.1.13, 11. 15, 9] pentadecane

A new polynitro cage compound 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15-nonanitro-2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15-nonaazaheptcyclo [5.5.1.1(3,11).1(5,9)] pentadecane (NNNAHP) was designed in the present work. Its molecular structure was optimized at the B3LYP/6-31 G(d,p) level of density functional theory (DFT) and crystal structure was predicted using the Compass and Dreiding force fields and refined by DFT GGA-RPBE method. The obtained crystal structure of NNNAHP belongs to the P-1 space group and the lattice parameters are a = 9.99 ?, b = 10.78 ?, c = 9.99 ?, α = 90.01°, β = 120.01°, γ = 90.00°, and Z = 2, respectively. Based on the optimized crystal structure, the band gap, density of state, thermodynamic properties, infrared spectrum, strain energy, detonation characteristics, and thermal stability were predicted. Calculation results show that NNNAHP has detonation properties close to those of CL-20 and is a high energy density compound with moderate stability.     

Relations of the Al,B, Ba,Br, Ca,Cl, Cu,Fe, K,Li, Mg,Mn, Na,P, S,Si, Sr,and Zn mass fractions to morphometric parameters in pediatric and nonhyperplastic young adult prostate glands

The variation with age of the 18 trace element mass fractions and some histological characteristics of intact prostate glands of 50 subjects aged 0–30 years was investigated by instrumental neutron activation analysis, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry, and a quantitative morphometric analysis. Mean values ± standard error of the mean (M ± SΕΜ) for the mass fractions (in milligrams per kilogram wet tissue) of these trace elements in pre-puberty were: Al 28.5 ± 9.0, B 0.40 ± 0.11, Ba 1.48 ± 0.44, Br 10.5 ± 1.5, Ca 241 ± 30, Cl 3,203 ± 278, Cu 3.51 ± 0.89, Fe 33.7 ± 4.1, K 2,364 ± 145, Li 0.020 ± 0.004, Mg 153 ± 23, Mn 0.46 ± 0.06, Na 2,286 ± 130, P 1,391 ± 100, S 1,698 ± 132, Si 62 ± 11, Sr 0.38 ± 0.08, and Zn 27.6 ± 2.3. During puberty and postpuberty, when there is a significant increase in circulating androgens, the mean values were: Al 7.2 ± 1.4, B 0.21 ± 0.05, Ba 0.25 ± 0.06, Br 5.8 ± 1.0, Ca 433 ± 81, Cl 2,314 ± 201, Cu 1.77 ± 0.13, Fe 20.9 ± 1.6, K 2,585 ± 118, Li 0.0088 ± 0.0014, Mg 232 ± 27, Mn 0.34 ± 0.04, Na 1,875 ± 107, P 1,403 ± 98, S 1,673 ± 73, Si 22.2 ± 3.1, Sr 0.22 ± 0.03, and Zn 93.3 ± 8.9. Mean values (M ± SΕΜ) of percent volumes (%) of the stroma, epithelium and lumen in the prostate before puberty were 73.4 ± 2.6, 20.4 ± 1.7, and 4.45 ± 0.94, respectively, versus 46.5 ± 2.5, 38.5 ± 1.9, and 14.9 ± 1.2 during puberty and postpuberty. This work’s results confirm that the Zn mass fraction in prostate tissue is an androgen-dependent parameter. For the first time it has been demonstrated that the glandular lumen is a main pool of Ca, Mg, and Zn accumulation and that the stroma is a main pool of Al, B, Ba, Br, Cl, Cu, Fe, Mn, Na, and Si accumulation in the normal human prostate, for the age range 0–30 years. It was concluded that the Ca, Mg, and Zn binds tightly within the prostatic fluid, because the volume of glandular lumen reflects the volume of prostatic fluid.     

The Effect of Age and Gender on Al, B, Ba, Ca, Cu, Fe, K, Li, Mg, Mn, Na, P, S, Sr, V, and Zn Contents in Rib Bone of Healthy Humans

The effect of age and gender on major, minor, and trace element contents in the intact rib bone of 80 relatively healthy 15–55-year-old women and men was investigated. Contents or upper limit of contents of 16 chemical elements in the rib bone were determined by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). Mean values (M?±?SΕΜ) for the mass fraction of Ba, Ca, Cu, Fe, K, Li, Mg, Na, P, S, Sr, and Zn (milligram per kilogram of dry bone) were as follows: 2.54?±?0.16, 171,400?±?4,050, 1.35?±?0.22, 140?±?11, 1,874?±?71, 0.049?±?0.011, 2,139?±?38, 5,378?±?88, 75,140?±?1,660, 1,881?±?51, 291?±?20, and 92.8?±?1.5, respectively. The upper limits of contents of Al, B, Mn, and V were <7.20, <0.65, <0.36, and <0.03, respectively. Statistically significant tendency for the Ca, Mg, and P content to decrease with age was found in the human rib bone, regardless of gender. The mass fraction of Fe in the male rib bone increases with age. It was shown that higher Ca, Mg, Na, P, and Sr mass fractions as well as lower Fe content were typical of female ribs as compared to those in male ribs.     

Simultaneous measurement of the trace elements Al, As, B, Be, Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Li, Mn, Mo, Ni, Rb, Se, Sr, and Zn in human serum and their reference ranges by ICP-MS

The goal of this article was to establish reference ranges of the concentration of trace elements in human serum and to compare these results with those reported by other authors. We describe the sample preparation and measurement conditions that allow the rapid, precise, and accurate determination of Al, As, B, Be, Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Li, Mn, Mo, Ni, Rb, Se, Sr, and Zn in human serum samples (n=110) by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Accuracy and precision were determined by analyzing three reconstituted reference serum samples by comparison with other methods and by the standard addition procedure. The advantages of the ICP-MS method include short time of analysis of the elements mentioned, low detection limit, high precision, and high accuracy. Disadventages include a high risk of contamination due to the presence of some of the elements of interest in the environment, the relatively delicate sample handling, and the high cost of the equipment.     

Distribution of N,P, K,Ca, Mg,S, Zn,Fe, Mn and Cu in groundnut

Summary Concentration of N, P, K, Ca, Mg and S in summer groundnut crop was higher than in kharif while Zn, Fe, Mn and Cu contents were higher in summer crop. Kernel's N, P and Zn; Leaflet's Ca and Mn; Stem's K and Fe; Root's S and Cu and Petiole's Mg contents were highest. Shell's N, P, K, Mg, S, Zn and Cu; Kernel's Ca, Fe and Mn contents were the least. N, P, K, S, Zn and Cu concentrations decreased linearly as the crop grew. Ca, Mg, Fe and Mn concentrations did not display any distinct pattern. Ca concentration was positively correlated with pod yield in both the seasons.     

Reference values for the concentrations of As,Cd, Co,Cr, Cu,Fe, I,Hg, Mn,Mo, Ni,Pb, Se,and Zn in selected human tissues and body fluids

This report attempts to formulate reference ranges of elemental concentrations for 15 trace elements in selected human tissues and body fluids. A set of samples consisting of whole blood, blood serum, urine, milk, liver, and hair were chosen and considered for 15 elements of biological significance: As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, F, Fe, I, Hg, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Se, and Zn. The results represent wholly or partially data received from 40 countries of the global regions of Africa, Asia, Europe, North, South, and Central America, Australia, and New Zealand. This survey, even if qualitative, has been useful in demonstrating certain trends of trace-element scenarios around the world. It is of course recognized that both diet and environment exert a strong influence on the distribution pattern of several elements, such as As, Cd, Mn, Pb, Se, and Zn. A limited comparison of the available information on soil status of different countries reflected some interesting associations for elements, such as Mn and Zn. Importantly, this study revealed that only a few countries were in a position to identify a reasonable amount of data on samples requested for this project. Regretably, for a number of countries, any dependable data for even such essential elements as Cu, Fe, and Zn were not available. In view of the nutritional importance of many elements, the time is ripe for concerted efforts by intergovernmental agencies to initiate investigations or commission task forces/projects to generate reliable reference data for selected global regions, which sadly lack data of any kind at present.     

Potential Compounds for Oral Cancer Treatment: Resveratrol,Nimbolide, Lovastatin,Bortezomib, Vorinostat,Berberine, Pterostilbene,Deguelin, Andrographolide,and Colchicine

Oral cancer is one of the main causes of cancer-related deaths in South-Asian countries. There are very limited treatment options available for oral cancer. Research endeavors focused on discovery and development of novel therapies for oral cancer, is necessary to control the ever rising oral cancer related mortalities. We mined the large pool of compounds from the publicly available compound databases, to identify potential therapeutic compounds for oral cancer. Over 84 million compounds were screened for the possible anti-cancer activity by custom build SVM classifier. The molecular targets of the predicted anti-cancer compounds were mined from reliable sources like experimental bioassays studies associated with the compound, and from protein-compound interaction databases. Therapeutic compounds from DrugBank, and a list of natural anti-cancer compounds derived from literature mining of published studies, were used for building partial least squares regression model. The regression model thus built, was used for the estimation of oral cancer specific weights based on the molecular targets. These weights were used to compute scores for screening the predicted anti-cancer compounds for their potential to treat oral cancer. The list of potential compounds was annotated with corresponding physicochemical properties, cancer specific bioactivity evidences, and literature evidences. In all, 288 compounds with the potential to treat oral cancer were identified in the current study. The majority of the compounds in this list are natural products, which are well-tolerated and have minimal side-effects compared to the synthetic counterparts. Some of the potential therapeutic compounds identified in the current study are resveratrol, nimbolide, lovastatin, bortezomib, vorinostat, berberine, pterostilbene, deguelin, andrographolide, and colchicine.
